it has been a long time since I wrote anything cause i have been so busy with school.I just got done taking the second time HVAC excellence test the first time all 9 out of 11 students failed this time it was just me.Is this me or is this test really is hard.RJ

Thanks for the info.I'm not so sure he will let me take it again.By the way do you have any good advice on what might make me retain more of this info.by the way the proctor is my teacher in this and I'm the only FEMALE in his class i gues that is why he is being so hard on me I know my ohmms law and diodes,what comes in to the house and things like that but when I start taking the test it seems like I forget it all or I'm not understanding the ? please help

About the icons: The beer is tip link, if a tech saves ya some money buy em a 6 pack. The small green square=personal message. The green dot is a link to my web page on appliance repair and other general BS I love to post. The letter sends me email.I love fan letters! LOL

The best retainer is experience. Call on a HVAC company and ask to ride along on service calls to observe a field tech. The class info will make more sense when you see it in action.Also,some very qualified people do not do written test well. Ask for a verbal test.

This is a cheap route to go, google hvac excellence tests questions and anwers the tests are all very standard and I bet you can find the answers to all of the tests with the questions. Which test is the problem I will look to see if I still have mine so you can review it. The biggest solution in my opinion is understanding the theory.

the one I'm having problems with is the first one Electrical ER when i get the letter that they have sent me it is saying I'm very week in electrical troubleshooting and electrical components I thought I did very well in that part.Let me see if this is right if I'm testing a load I will get voltage if I m testing an open circuit i will get voltage if I m testing a closed circuit I will get nothing

The best way to pass the test is to get some experience behind you. Down here guys that are in HVAC school get job offers to work with HVAC companys while still going to school 3 nights a week from 5 to 9 pm. Students ride with techs as helpers during the day and go to school at night.
